hmmm... thats not backwards though. Since you chopped only on one side it makes sense for it to fall to that side. Would be cool if devs could apply this to all trees. That way if you chopped +50% on one side it falls to that side. Its how threes work in real

i don't trust that diagram though. In reality, with a saw, your second cut would only angle downwards, not clear another wedge out of the tree. Otherwise you still run the risk of the tree falling on your head after all.
